Greetings from Nebraska.
I just finished up a PSI Premium Designer NT modified to eliminate the stock center band. The blank is a piece of Cocobolo that was imported from Costa Rica. It has Gold plating and I finished it with my standard CA regimen. Although it only comes in Gold, I prefer the Premium Designer kit over the standard kits because it has 8mm tubes and uses Parker style refills.
The no-centerband design was inspired by Lee (PenCasso) and some Bethlehem Olive Wood pens he showed recently. Mike (MRDucks2) also provided some very helpful process options. Thanks Lee and Mike.
Overall I think it turned out pretty good -- I just might have to make a few more using this design.
Regards,
Dave
